is it wrong that I'm a devoted Catholic and also a member of my local pro soccer team's supporter group? one of my friend told me that I should pick one or the other. which I found odd, but thought I would ask people that know. by the way any L.A. Galaxy fans here? or MLS fans for that matter

I don't know why you have to choose between the two. Maybe pray for the member who asked you this. As long as the soccer group is moral and not doing anything against Catholic teaching, it should be fine I would think. I would also suggest you talk to your priest in a private conversation about this situation.

However, if for some reason, the group came to you and said, "be a member of us or the Church", I hope you would choose the Church.

Hello Randall, thank you for your input. There is no doubt in my mind, that I would choose The Church over soccer anyday... I actually stopped playing soccer, because it interfered with my Ushering. so who is your fav. team? I'm a Chelsea and Real Madrid fan
